FREMONT, Ohio (Monday, April 17, 2006) - Fremont Speedway will kick off its 55th season of racing Saturday, April 22, as the fire-breathing Fort Ball Pizza 410 winged sprints, the mud-slinging Fremont Federal Credit Union 305 sprints and the door-banging Coors Light Dirt Trucks will do battle.

The win-list at "The Track That Action Built" is like reading a "Who's Who" of racing, and a new generation of drivers are eager to add their names as the season gets underway on Snyder's Floor Covering Night.

The winner of the 410 sprint feature will take home $2,500, while the 305 sprint feature winner will earn $500 and the dirt truck victor will get $300.

Gates will open Saturday at 4:30 p.m. with racing slated to begin at 7:30 p.m. General admission tickets are $12 for adults, $10 for Senior Citizens, $6 for teens 11-16 and children 10 and under are admitted free. Pit passes are $25.
